NEXT instruction

NEXT (no parameters)

Immediately ends the current pass through the loop. Execution continues with the start of the next pass through the loop, which will be one of the following:

•the index update for DO or DOFOR

•the condition check for WHILE and UNTIL

•the top of the loop for LOOP

Example

dofor i = result1 result2 result3 result4

statistics(noprint) i

if %cdstat < 1.96

(remaining analysis executed only when the condition is false)

end dofor

This performs a t-test on four series. If a series has mean insignificantly different from zero (at 5%), we skip the rest of the analysis for that series and go on to the next.
